After hosting Bond<\/a>, our first conference that examined how creators make a living through the internet, it’s clear that our community wants more events like this in our space.<\/p>\n

In an effort to bring together more creators, makers, and entrepreneurs, we’ve decided to host a brand new quarterly event series called Talkin’ Shop<\/strong>. It’ll feature guest speakers from all corners of the crowdfunding and community patronage space as they share their stories and provide practical advice to attendees.<\/p>\n

We’re also providing opportunities for our team and community members to take lead by hosting intimate breakout discussions surrounding specific themes such as how to build community, running a successful crowdfunding campaign, bringing your product to market, and so on.\"GIR\"<\/a>Our first Talkin’ Shop event is happening on Tuesday June 26th from 6pm-8pm<\/strong><\/em> at the BackerKit office in San Francisco, CA. Here are a few things you can look forward to:<\/p>\n

Featured Talk and Q&A with GIR’s founder and CEO Samantha Rose<\/a>
\n<\/strong>Samantha will share her GIR creative journey<\/a> while detailing how to grow an idea until it’s a finished product, and then introduce it to nationwide retail. She’ll give priceless insight on how to navigate the rough waters along the way.<\/em><\/p>\n

Breakout Talk with Maybe Capital’s founder and designer Dre Koval<\/a>
\n<\/strong>It’s hard to find the creative motivation to finish projects, and the real work happens before you even begin. Creating a clear vision, acknowledging your inspiration and making a plan you can build on are the key factors in directing your efforts and finishing projects. It’s a journey of discovering yourself, finding your magic spark and declaring how you will share that with the world.<\/em><\/p>\n

Breakout Discussion with BackerKit’s Michael Kent and George Petro
\n<\/strong>Already have an idea? Ready to start building your Kickstarter or Indiegogo page? Join BackerKit’s Creator Success Manager George Petro and our Backer Support Lead Michael Kent as they lead a discussion on all the dos and don’ts surrounding an effective campaign page.<\/em><\/p>\n
